High-Assurance Avionics Multi-Domain RFID Processing System

Distributed processing of RFID information enables new RFID applications where tags, readers and processing systems belong to different administrative domains and where multiple RFDD applications are realized using a common reader and processing infrastructure. A novel distributed RFID processing architecture supporting various future eEnabled airplane applications based on RFID technology is described. In a particularly challenging application environment, RFID readers are installed on-board airplanes and connected dynamically by wireless communication with various ground system at airports and during maintenance. The airplane RFDD reader infrastructure has to be dynamically integrated with different ground systems. The security requirements caused by this temporal integration within different administrative domains and corresponding solution approaches are described.
